The prompt for the month is words. Is this vibrant enough? I threw this page together quite quickly as I am not feeling all that great. I used some sparkly tape to form the letters. Love the sparkle!
I finished up my stitched butterfly. I used my own hand dyed silk thread to stitch on to silk fabric. This exists in a small silk book I created. I am rethinking the book idea. It is rather flimsy so I think I will cut out the pages and use the stitched pieces in something else. Not exactly sure what at this moment but it will come to me.

I have used the buttonhole and the running stitch to form a cherry. I am thinking I am going to do a sampler of stitches throughout this year. It is definitely not a new idea but I have never done anything like this previously. I am not sure that it totally fits with Sharon B's idea. We will see where this takes me.

This is my January stitch a day progress. The fabric is twice stenciled and now I am stitching silver thread to it. I decided I would do the same six-inch square size as last year as they may all come together into one big project down the road. However, I am thinking about stitching on one project now. After seeing others do that for 2017 and their marvelous results I am wanting to try it. I can always start that in February. I am linking to https://kathysquilts.blogspot.ca/
I had a hard time getting a decent picture of my fabric journal pages. This is a good as it gets. I have quite a collection of them and it is time they get put into book form. There is still a bit of work to be done on some of them but that can be done before or after I put them into a book form. Right now I am pondering whether I should do one big book or two smaller ones. What do you think? I am linking to http://ninamariesayre.blogspot.ca/
The prompt for all of January is words. Having already done a page about my word for the year (sufficient) I wasn't quite sure what do with this prompt. This month is busy for me so I am trying to make the most of my time. Yesterday I installed some of my art at the Ayr Library as I am the Artist in Residence this year. I talked with the co-ordinators about a number of things including having a small display of altered book pages. That was fresh in my mind while thinking about my journal page this week. Therefore my journal page is doing double duty this week. I will use this page as part of my display. I found the word light on this page and encircled it with the candle flame.
